The Green Man

A green man is a sculpture, drawing or other representation of a pagan or otherwise vegetative deity.  Often  found as a sculpture in old English churches, it is believed to represent the rebirth or renaissance  after winter. Many english pubs are called  The Green Man.

Here is my take on a full year in the life of The Green Man.

Vases

Have you ever wondered what artists do with the old oil paint left unused on their pallettes?

Well, here is what I do with my scrap paint, with the use of a palette knife I transform old vases cheaply purchased from charity shops.


Same vase, just a bit closer to show texture


This vase was all crackled on the sufrace, the oil paint hides the damage


I wonder what an artist urns these days
